Best of the Genea-blogs - Week of April 13-19, 2008

Here are my picks for great reads from the genealogy blogs for this past week.

My criteria are pretty simple - I pick posts that advance knowledge about genealogy, address current genealogy issues, provide personal family history, are funny or are poignant. I don't list posts destined for the Carnival of Genealogy, or other meme submissions (but I do include summaries of them), or my own posts.

* "Google Trends" by John Newmark on the Transylvanian Dutch blog. John follows Kathi's post from last week with more charts and analysis about genealogy, ancestry, geneology, beer and sports teams.

* "FamilySearchWiki" by Jessica Hacken on the Genealogy Buds blog. Jessica discusses the new FamilySearch Wiki and how it may be used to provide a wealth of information about all aspects of genealogy. I agree!

I encourage you to go to the blogs listed above and read their articles, and add their blog to your Favorites, Bloglines, reader, feed or email if you like what you read. Please make a comment to them also - we all appreciate feedback on what we write.

Thanks SEAVER for the link. The Maven did such a good job showcasing my article. I think SHADES OF THE DEPARTED will become a major digital magazine. And I appreciate your linking to my work there.TERRY
